EDP Renewables surpassed the landmark of 15 GW of contracted capacity in PPAs globally as North America leads growth.
Houston, Texas, March 31, 2025 – In preparation for tomorrow’s announcement of the launch of its newest project in Indiana associated with a notable technology customer, EDP Renewables North America LLC (EDPR NA) highlights that it has achieved a key power purchase agreement (PPA) milestone to date in the United States. EDP Renewables has reached 15 GWp globally of contracted PPAs from some of the world’s largest companies. EDPR NA played a large contributing factor in this success, executing 11 GW of the 15 GW globally signed PPAs. Power and utilities, data centers, wholesale and retail, electricity, gas, steam, and manufacturing are amongst the top five sectors leading EDP’s global corporate and utility customer PPAs.
45% of the power associated with new PPAs signed in 2024 will support data centers globally. In North America specifically, EDPR NA was especially effective in supporting clean energy growth for the technology sector, executing PPAs for Amazon, Microsoft, Meta, and others the last few years.
